Anyone else for Battlestar Galactica?

gazzareth · Jun 6, 2014

Wondering if anyone else has done / thought this:

I've got the "Boost" mapped to one of the top buttons on my joystick, which means every time I hit it, I feel like Boomer / Starbuck heading off to kick some Cylons into touch....

... big grin every time.

Now if we could just get some Thargoids to bash .. .. .. ..

Edit: think that's the random thought for the day....

Doubt we'll see thargoids before release.

In your case, meanwhile shooting English people will have to suffice, there's plenty of them

I was wondering why would Belgian want to shoot the Egnlish people... then i remembered: It must be Red Dwarf Rimmer's fault!

LISTER: "All right then, a time machine. She can invent a time machine,
and we could all pick whatever period in history we wanted to live in."
RIMMER: "Well, it'll be the nineteenth century for me. One of Napoleon's
marshals. The chance to march across Europe with the greatest general
of all time and kill Belgians. Marvellous."

Beware the Belgian revenge.. or something, i guess

What me? no i was pointing to the fact that gazzareth is from Scotland.

I don't discriminate, i'll shoot everyone with equal enthusiasm

Great random thought. I may have to do some remapping as well.

For a little bit if a Battlestar Galactica feel try doing this in the Beta ;-

About half way through ;-)

As a proud born and bred Irishman, who's currently on the executive committee for my local Liverpool supporters club, I wholeheartedly endorse the hating of an English football team managed by Roy Hodgson!

Fortunately, it is water off a duck's back, I dont give a stuff about football, couldn't even name a current England player...

.... makes it funny when the locals try and wind me up about the England team.

From the front, the Cobra does remind me of the original Cylon raiders from the '80s series.

Lol, good memory! Dwarfers rock!

Re: OP. Yes, I always thought of Strike Suit Zero as the closest I'd ever get to being a Battlestar Galactica CAG, but no, ED raises the bar tenfold. Much credit must go to the audio team too for the 'boost' and other superb audio in the game.
